IMPROVEMENT IN ROLLING-PINS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent N0. 220,669, dated October 14, IP79; application filed July 12, 1879.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, JONATHAN L. SCARBOR- OUGH, of Olivers, in the county of Anderson and State of Tennessee, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rolling-Pin Combinations; and -I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawin gs, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.

Figure 1 of the drawings is a representation of a longitudinal section of my rolling-pin combination, and Fig. 2 is a View of one end of-the same.

The nature of my invention consists in the combination of a rolling-pin with a series of devices or implements combined therewith, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.

The annexed drawings, to which reference is made, fully illustrate my invention.

A represents the rolling pin proper, made, as usual, in cylindrical form. This pin is bored out from both, ends inward for suitable distances, forming two cylindrical chambers, B and B, the ends or openings to which are closed by handles 0 and D, respectively, the inner ends of said handles constituting plugs for closing the chambers, which plugs may either be made smooth or proy'ided with screwthreads, as desired.

The chamber B is intended for use as a receptacle for soda. .The inner end of the handle G is hollow, and in the same is a plunger, 1), operated by a rod, a, passing through the end of the handle, as shown. By'pulling back the plunger 1) more or less any desired quantity of soda can be measured out according as more or less maybe desired. In this end of the rolling-pin is also inserted a knife-sharpener, E, in a longitudinal hole bored in the body of the pin.

0n the opposite end of the rolling-pin is placed a metallic band, F, which forms a cakecutter.

The handle D has a knife-blade, G, secured to its inner end, which blade, when the handle is inserted, is concealed within the chamber B.

In the outer end of the handle G is inserted a grater, H, the end of the handle being bored out for the purpose of receiving said grater.

The grater H, as well as the end of the rod a in the handle 0, are provided with rings d for hanging up the rolling-pin.

My rolling-pin thus contains and carries with it such devices as are most needed at the time when a rolling-pin is being used.

I claim 1. In a rollingpin, the handle 0, provided with the interior adjustable plunger I), to form a measure, substantially as described.

2. A rolling-pin, A, formed with chambers B B and provided with the handle O, having interior plunger 1), the cake-cutter F, knifesharpener E,and the handle D, having blade G and grater H, as and for the purposes set forth.

In testimony that I claim the above 1 have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
